You know where your pistons are now in your block now so it is time look at the other 318 pistons out there for a taller compression height scope wrench up
How about a .050 to .075 longer rod?

The KB hypereutectics are very close to zero deck, just be careful of the intake valve eyebrows are so big they dont leave much meat around the bores, at least on a standard 3.91 bore, an oversize is probably fine.

I built a 341" motor with those KB's in a standard bore low mileage 318 block and a 3.55 stroke MP crank with 6" aluminum rods, it rev'ed like a Banshee

These all have a compression height of 1.80 to 1.81. I never heard of the DSS piston brand before. The early 340 high compression pistons had a compression height of 1.84" and they stuck above deck by .018" (for a nominal deck height). Reference the Speed-Pro 340 pistons.
